'Shy' is a subjective term and doesn't equate to not liking to talk to people.  Not in my context anyway.
Read my explanation again.
It was about ice-breaking, rusting social skills and the possible rudeness of not recognising someone rather than not enjoying a good old gas.

Out of interest....would you ever speak to someone like that - what you said?




   
    
   
     But if you are shy and you don't like talking to people, why don't you just say to people  "Fuck off I'm shy , I don't want to talk  , I ve come to see Killing Joke and I am quite honestly  not bothered about how you are keeping , so do one  , piss off and go and talk to someone else and let me enjoy me beer"?

    You make going to a musical airing sound like such a robotic thing.  'Walk in, watch band, leave - ignore all distractions :-)))
    Of course it's a social event and you're going to bump into people that you haven't seen for ages and for the shyist amongst us, it's a little daunting - particularly if you're anything like me, as blind as a bat and can never remember names and faces unless they've been drilled into my head which can be quite embarrassing.  This is worsened - everybody else seems to be more adept at recognising me.
    Fuck I'd blame it on the beer but I walk past my own daughter in the street in broad daylight.  She pisses herself laughing.



      "I go through bouts of being undersocialised and it can make social situations daunting. " 

        Why do you find it daunting ?
      You go to gigs to see a band and you don't go there to talk to people .
      I don't particularly like talking to people at the best of times .
